Who ya' gonna believe? The technologists? Or the corporate spokespersons? (Hint: I've already applied for an absentee ballot.) [via Michael Geist's Internet Law News]
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has a nice page here that should allow one to determine what voting machine they will be facing on November 2 and the strengths and weaknesses of each machine. Unfortunately, the link to the Location list seems to be broken, so I had to determine the type machine I'll be using by looking at a combination of my county's web site and then the voting machine manufacturer's web site. I was thus able to determine the appropriate (for my polling place) machine-specific information on the EFF site, where I read the following:
Justice (Civil Liberties, so-called Intellectual Property, Privacy & Secrecy); Politics & Government (International, National, State, Local); Humor (Irony & the Funny or Unusual); Science & Technology (Astronomy, Computers, the Internet, e-Voting, Crypto, Physics & Space); Communication (Books, Film, Media, Music & the English Language); Economics (Corporatism & Consumerism); and Items of Purely Personal Note (including Genealogy, Photography, Religion & Spirituality). |
